"We got lots of volunteers and we're continuing to do searches throughout the county in other areas and looking any type of leads that could help us in bringing Holly back," Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Special Agent John Mehr said.

She was confronted Wednesday by a man in hunting camouflage who forced her to go with him into the woods, Mehr said.

Bobo's 25-year-old brother Clint watched from inside the home, but did not believe she was being abducted until later. He saw the stranger from behind and believed it was his sister's boyfriend.

Her brother, said Mehr, "had reasons to believe [the man] was not an attacker," and did not call 911 until he saw blood outside.

Where would the vehicle of the abductor be hidden. Could it have been accessed from the woods that the abductor was observed entering with Holly by her brother?

around the 4 + minute mark he denies the blood info , or grab a drink first

Where is the contradiction?

Island that was yesterday's presser

IIRC the blood info came out before today, can't remember when but he stated he hadn't told anyone about the what the brother stated wrt anything but what he saw at the 4 minute + mark......I haven't found today's presser yet for some reason

Officials said to be on the lookout for changes in behavior, such as missing work Wednesday through Friday. They also said to look for someone who may have excessively cleaned or sold a vehicle or all-terrain vehicle.

Janet, literally anywhere.......that area is sparsely populated and there is extremely thick vegatation everywhere, duck blinds where they could hide them, a tremendous amount of water, the TN River, and tons of smaller bodies of water, marinas, you name it...it gets even worse once you get into the Natchez Trace SP. And yes it could have been accessed from the woods easily from my memory of that area.

Well today its being reported:

TBI: Blood sample is being testedabout 4 hours ago via webBreaking: TBI: There was a small amount of blood found outside the home.about 4 hours ago via webhttp://twitter.com/willnunley

Since the abductor obviously knew the schedule of Holly Bobo and her family one has to wonder just how planned in advance this kidnapping was. Did the abductor have a vehicle waiting at a location after driving an ATV? The get away trail had to be known in advance. Or does this individual have a location in the middle of no where in the woods already staked out, ie a cave, etc?

I certainly pray that she is still safe. One has to have a good feeling that she is because it would hardly seem that this man would have gone through all this planning to kill her. It would have been easy to have just done that when she walked to her car.

The police make a good observation for all people to think and remember who in any business, school or any place was not accounted for at the time Holly was abducted. Any one who ones an ATV in the area needs to be questioned.

If what the brother is revealing is the truth ... could it be that Holly Bobo was taken out of the area in a vehicle a short time after she was observed entering the woods? This gives me hope that she is still alive.

I don't know if it is a rumor but ... I read there was an ex-boyfriend that Holly had taken out a restraining order against.

(WMC-TV) - At a press conference Sunday, TBI officials said they have found items that may help them in the search for missing nursing student Holly Bobo.

Authorities are asking for help from people in the Parsons community as the search for Bobo continues.

The TBI and other law enforcement agencies asked residents during a news conference to take notice of anyone whose whereabouts were unaccounted for Wednesday morning when Bobo went missing.

Officials said to be on the lookout for changes in behavior, such as missing work Wednesday through Friday. They also said to look for someone who may have excessively cleaned or sold a vehicle or all-terrain vehicle.

I agree with that, but it was also reported on the 15th ......and Mehr is the one IIRC that originally stated she was dragged across the carport too, but then yesterday he denied even mentioning the blood? It's just bizarre, maybe someone needs to remind him what he stated from day to day to press...

::snipping2::

The TBI had previously said Bobo was dragged from her home near Parsons, about 100 miles northeast of Memphis. On Friday, Mehr clarified that she was being held by the hand or arm, but not in a forceful manner.

::snipping2::

TBI officials have said Bobo’s 25-year-old brother saw his sister outside the house with a man before she was kidnapped at around 7:30 a.m. But he only saw the man from the back, and he thought he was her boyfriend.

He did not become suspicious until he went outside and saw blood. Then he called 911.

::snipping2::

That video is a direct contradiction to this media article and it's just becoming incredibly confusing with all the she was dragged, NO she wasn't..her brother found blood, NO he didn't report that. I know he's tired and stressed but it just adds to the rumor mill when he contradicts himself

ITA and in this area that would be virtually every man....same with camo, this town is tiny tiny and it is so amazing to see this type of turnout when Parsons has about 2600 population and last time I was there one traffic light. God Bless the searchers!
